Overview Tofaday Tablet

Artiva tablets are indicated for managing moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and ulcerative colitis. This medication alleviates joint pain, tenderness, and swelling by suppressing inflammation, and helps retard the progression of bone and joint deterioration. Artiva may be administered alone or in conjunction with other therapies. The tablets can be ingested with or without food, ideally at the same time daily. Dosage is determined by individual needs and concurrent medications, following your physician's instructions. Discontinuation should only occur under medical supervision, as abrupt cessation may exacerbate the condition. Common adverse effects include upper respiratory infections, headaches, diarrhea, and nasopharyngitis. Less frequent, but potentially serious, side effects such as blood clots and gastrointestinal perforations require immediate medical attention. Any concerns regarding side effects warrant consultation with your doctor. Pre-treatment blood work may be necessary, and the medication shouldn't be initiated if an infection is present. Prior to commencing treatment, discuss your medical history, including tuberculosis, herpes zoster, hepatic or renal impairment, hepatitis B or C, or a history of pulmonary or deep vein thrombosis, with your doctor. Artiva increases susceptibility to infections and may worsen existing ones; therefore, contact with contagious individuals (e.g., those with measles, chickenpox, or influenza) should be minimized. This medication is contraindicated in individuals under 18 years of age and during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless deemed medically necessary. Regular check-ups with your physician may be required.

FAQs on Tofaday Tablet

Tell your doctor about any liver problems before starting Tofaday Tablets.

While Tofaday Tablets can be used in patients with mild to moderate liver impairment, they shouldn't be prescribed to those with severe impairment.
Tofaday Tablet may weaken the immune system, potentially increasing the risk of certain cancers, including lymphoma and skin cancer. Tell your doctor if you have a history of cancer.

You may begin to feel improvement from Tofaday Tablet within 2 to 8 weeks, with full effects typically seen after 3 to 6 months.
Before and during Tofaday Tablet treatment, your doctor may order blood tests to check for anemia, neutropenia, lymphopenia, high cholesterol, or elevated liver enzymes. These tests help monitor your overall health and ensure Tofaday Tablet isn't causing adverse effects.
